    • Program Details:
      • Interns spend ~15 h/week on their project. The project supervisor will work with interns to determine schedules (most are quite flexible). Interns meet with their supervisor at least once weekly. 
      • There will be required online meetings of all interns with Workforce leadership to provide project updates and participate in trainings (LinkedIn, writing abstracts, etc) every two weeks (typically on a weeknight at 5 pm EST). 
      • At the end of the program, interns will be required to submit a written and graphical abstract. In addition, all interns will be required to present their final project at a symposium on the evening of  December 1st. 
    • Eligibility: 
      • Undergraduates (juniors/seniors), professional, and graduate students across the state of New Jersey.
      • Postdocs, fellows, residents and non-matriculated students are not eligible.
      • Because this internship is funded by NIH, students must be US citizens or permanent residents (i.e., green card).
    • Stipend: $2000 for the duration of the internship. 
    • Timeframe:  The Fall 2022 program will start on Monday, September 12th. 
    • Deadline: Applications must be submitted electronically no later than midnight on Monday, April 18, 2022.
